[Phone ringing]

[Phone ringing]

[Answering machine beeps]

[Woman on machine]
I got your message.

I don't, I don't know
what to think.

I'm on my way.

*

[Answering machine beeps]

[Woman on machine]
Please give me a call.

You sounded so upset,
I'm worried.

*

[Woman]
What's wrong, Nathan?

[Nathan narrating]
Something's happened.
Something really bad.

*

[Nathan narrating]
There's something
you should know.

We've never talked about it.

In fact, I never told anyone.

When I was a kid
my parents split up.

I lived with my father.

He and I didn't get along.

It seemed like he never
approved of anything I did.

He had my whole life
mapped out for me.

And he wasn't concerned
about what I wanted.

I met a girl
named Cecilia at Stanford.

I had it really bad for her.

I was gonna marry her.

Until that weekend.

A family friend, Becki
was getting married.

My dad's girlfriend,
Vanessa, was in the wedding,

So Becki had invited them
to stay at her parents' place

On the lake a couple of days
before the ceremony.

**

My father wasn't social,

So he'd typically start
drinking right away.

Henry.

What?

Make it two, Henry.

- Hey!
- Hey!

[Nathan narrating]
No one really
seemed to mind, though.

In fact, people were always
trying to please my father.

Hey, that's a good
single malt I picked up.

Let me know
what you think of that.

I will.
[Scoffs]

Good thing we got here
before the storm hit.

God, you look good!
[Laughs]

Look who's talking.

You cut the hair,
you shaved the goatee.

That's a very sexy look
on you.

- Thank you.
- Hey, easy you two.

Hey, don't worry.

There's only one girl
I'm taking to Fiji.

Oh!

So how about it?
You wanna go to Fiji?

- Hey!
- I'd love it!

[Laughing]
Complete asses!

I'm sorry, did I just loose
myself for a minute?

She looks so good.

Okay!
[Laughing]

What does every...
What do we need here?

[Nathan narrating]
At first, I wasn't gonna
go to the wedding,

But Cecilia
talked me into it.

Look, there's what the law is,

There's what the law
shouldn't be.

You know, I don't understand
why they don't implement

A law that says if you,

Make the loan
you assume the risk,

You manage that risk,

No selling off
to a third party.

You don't understand why they
make the law like that?

No, I don't understand why
they don't make that law,

Why they don't implement
that law.

Well, maybe you should talk
to your congressman.

You know, I mean 'cause
that's how laws get changed.

I'm just ah, working inside
a, you know, a set of rules,

And uh, playing by the rules.

I mean what you're talking
about now

Is changing the rules
in the middle of the game.

And uh, ya know, as long
as the rules are set up

The way they are,
I'm gonna play the best,

You know, I can.
I mean, I mean, you are,

You're in Africa,
you're doing your deal,

But uh, you know,
I got a family and a,

A lot of obligations.

[Nathan narrating]
They were always long-winded
political conversations.

They would go on
and on and on.

Nothing ever got solved.

With my father,
it was all about money.

Well, that's my point.
Is that, is that

The situation is able
to be exploited...
[Knocking on the door]

It's open!

We'll continue this.

- Hey!
- Oh, wow!

- Ahh, Nathan, you came!
- Oh!

- Hi.
- Hi, Cecilia!

So good to see you.

- Vanessa!
- Hey, how you doing?

Good.

[Nathan narrating]
My father didn't seem very
exited to see Cecilia and me.

I wasn't sure you guys were
gonna be able to make it, so,

I kept it a surprise.
Surprise!

This is a surprise.

- Hey!
- Good one, I hope.

Definitely.

- Oh, perfect.
- Hmm-hmm.

No, thank you.

See, that's what
I'm talking about.

It's that simple
"No, thank you"

And look how thin she is.

Wine is low carb.

You really should try some.

Maybe later.
[Laughs]

So I'm doing a story on this
group that's building a well

For a village in Zimbabwe.

For 125 dollars,

A whole village
could have clean water.

Wow, that's really cool.

It's true, a woman's
intuition is very perceptive.

Well, I guess mine isn't,

'Cause I didn't have
a fucking clue.

I thought we were driving
to LA

'Cause he was going
to a conference.

We're driving up Highway 1
and, honestly,

I was annoyed because I get
car sick on windy roads.

Oh, my God, tell me about it.

I was sick
the whole way here.

Yeah, [Clears throat] and um,

I'm, I'm sitting next
to this old woman,

And her skin is like leather.

It's like she
has so much... depth

And history in her face.

And um, and she's staring
at me.

Now, I'm,
I'm not joking around,

I mean she wasn't being subtle,
she was really staring at me.

And uh, and so I smiled
and it took her a second

And then she smiled back and
her whole being just lit up.

- It was beautiful.
- Wow.

It's sight connection, man,

That's, that's why
I do what I do.

Pulls off by
El Matador beach

And says he wants to look at
the view, so we walk off

To this little side area
and go over this bluff

And overlooking this
incredible ocean view

Is a table
with a white table cloth,

Waiter with a bow tie,
a guy playing a violin...

A violin?

Wow, he went all out.
That's romantic.

And you know the crazy thing
is about this?

Is that I look at him
when I see this

And I'm like...

"Wow, why don't you ever do
anything romantic

Like that for me?"

So he says
"Funny you should ask."

And he gets down on one knee.

- Pretty amazing.
- Yeah.

Man, um, I wish I could
do something like that.

You should give me a call
when you finish school.

You know, we, um, we're
always looking for interns.

Yeah, I'm, I'm actually done.

I'm not going to grad school.

Oh.

So, what're you gonna do?

I know I don't
want to do that.

Hey, guys, what's shaking?

Well, Nathan
was just telling me how

He's not going
to graduate school.

What?

I hadn't actually
told my father yet.

I've been meaning
to talk to you about that.

Would you excuse us?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

What the fuck are you
talking about?

You're not going
to grad school?

I thought about it
and I made up my mind.

I... it's not what I wanna do.

You made up your mind?

Yeah.

Do you know how much money

I have invested
in your education?

I mean, it cost me
40,000 dollars

To put you through
first grade.

50,000 dollars
for second grade.

It just went up from there.

[Nathan narrating]
It didn't go well.

You're going
to graduate school.

No if, ands, or buts!

That's what I love.

- Hey, I got to run.
- Bye.

So, I'll meet you
at the caterer's later?

Yes, good, yeah.

Becki just told us
about the proposal.

I had no idea you were
such a romantic.

It just took the right girl
to bring it out of me.

Hey, I already said "yes."

No need to sweet talk me.

Really?
Take it while you can get it.

Yeah, or someone else might.

- What?
- Well...

You better keep
sweet talking.

I guess they've convinced me,
what else you got?

Uh...

I'll think of something
on the drive.

- Okay, it better be good.
- Alright.

- Better be good, love you.
- Love you.

A bachelor's degree doesn't
mean what it used to.

Not in this economy.

I don't understand why
it matters so much.

Because it's your future.

Right, it's my future.

Yeah, and I'm paying
the bills.

You're going to graduate
school, end of story.

Why, so I can end up
like you?

What?

I heard that.

- How are things with you?
- Oh, great.

How are things with you?

Good, good.

So, how are things with
you and Nathan going?

Great, Henry.

You and Vanessa?

[Sighs]

Things are pretty good.

Pretty good.

I called you.

I called you back.

Yeah, and I couldn't talk
because I was with Nathan,

So I called you back.

Okay, what do you want?

We need to talk, Henry.

Why?

What's there to talk about?

Because something happened.

It's not something
I can just forget about.

Okay, alright.

Talk, what do you wanna know?

What do you wanna talk about?

- Oh, my God, really?
- What?

[Sighs]

- Let's talk about this.
- Okay, alright.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Okay.

What happened...

It was...

It was pretty passionate.

Yeah, yeah.

It was pretty passionate.

So, I was just thinking that...

Maybe you and me would be...

You wanna sh...

You wanna keep it up?

I'm, I'm, I'm down.

- Really?
- Definitely, definitely.

[Nathan narrating]
Looking back on it,
I guess there were signs.

Cool, but, you know, we got
to be really careful.

I mean, really careful.

- Yeah, yeah.
- Alright?

I can just tell by the way
his eyes light up

When he looks at her.

He's gonna ask her
to marry him.

- You really think so?
- Mm-hmm.

That's all we
fucking need, man.

And I really think
it's a second chance for you

And Nathan to connect
and bond.

It's about time
for that to happen.

Yeah, maybe you're right.

I know that you didn't wanna
come with me this weekend,

But it means a lot
to me that you came.

Thank you.

No, I'm, I'm glad I came.

This could be a nice time.

You know, we got a little
time before dinner.

You're talking
about five minutes?

I sure am.
[Laughs]

I'm good.
I'm down.

Don't you think we should
get back downstairs?

Why?
So I can listen to my dad

Talk to me about
school some more?

He is your dad.

So?

So?

He has the right to be
concerned about your future.

It's not my future
he's concerned about.

It's his status.

He wants what's best
for you, Nathan.

So he says.

Nathan.

Okay, okay.

Hey, do you think uh...

If I go down there
and deal with him,

Maybe I can come back up here
and deal with you a bit?

Maybe.

Maybe as in 80, 90% chance?

We'll see how it goes.

Alright, I have a feeling
it's going to go very well.

Come, come on in.

- Okay, I gotta go, bye.
- Hey.

Hey, so, I'm gonna head out.

- Okay.
- But Evan's gonna stop by.

He wanted to see you
before the wedding.

- Oh, that's great!
- I miss him, how is he?

He's Evan.

[Laughs]

He's still trying to figure
out what he's doing

With his life.

I think Evan just needs
to find himself.

Oh, really?
Really?

Why, why do people say that?

- Say what?
- Uh, make excuses for him.

I swear to God,
I love him so much,

But he's never been held
accountable for anything

In is entire life.

What are you talking about?

Well, um, I know you haven't
seen him in a while,

But he's pretty much doing
the same thing

He's always been doing.

Didn't he finish college?

No, it's like,
grow the fuck up already.

You know, I know you
hate it when I compare,

But...

Nathan, who's
ten years younger,

Graduated from Stanford,

Got accepted
to Berkeley Law School...

Nathan's a good kid,
Henry got lucky.

How are you two doing?

We're good.

- Really?
- Yes, we're good.

Look, I know you know about
all the girls...

Yeah, all of 'em.

Yup, the girls,
the drinking, all of it.

But he's a different man now.

We've been together
for two years.

That's true.

And I think, honestly,
I think that was

A turning point for him.
You know, I think solid now.

It's...

Okay, I'm gonna go.

Because the road down
the mountain's

Really rough in the rain.
Yeah.

I'm sorry, I just don't want
to see you get hurt again.

I know.

I love you.

I love you, too.
[Laughs]

And... you're right,

I should probably
give Henry a chance,

So I'll work on it.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

Bye, I'm getting married.
[Giggles]

I'm so exited.

Oh, hey, I guess this whole
marriage thing means uh,

We won't be
hooking up anymore.

You're unbelievable.

Why?

Because Vanessa just got through
telling me how

She's turned you around.

- Oh!
- Good job.

We'll see about that.

I was so nervous
to talk to you about this.

You don't have to be nervous.

You can talk to me.

Okay, I know this isn't
really conventional.

You're a little bit
older than me.

A little bit.

Yeah, but I think
we can be happy.

Of course.

This is such a relief,

And don't worry,
I'm gonna wait

Until after the weekend
to end things with Nathan.

End things with Nathan?

Oh, why would you do that?

Why wouldn't I do that?

Whoa, whoa, I mean,
we're not telling Nathan

Or Vanessa anything.

Well, what the hell did you
think we were gonna do?

I, shh, I, I, you know,
I thought...

What?
You were just gonna keep me

In an apartment and fuck me
whenever you wanted?

What did you think?

That you were gonna break up
with Nathan and that I was...

You know, break,
gonna break with Vanessa

And we're gonna live
happily ever after?

Yes!

Break up with them
so we can be together!

That's crazy!

That's fucking crazy!

I can't do that!

Henry...

What?

There's something
I need to tell you.

Cecilia, you wanna help me in
the kitchen with something?

Yeah, sure, I'd love to.

[Thunder]

Evan should be here soon.

We're gonna go to dinner.

In the meantime, uh,
sure you don't want a bite?

Yeah.

Okay, well, while we're
waiting for Evan,

Why don't you spend
a little time with Nathan?

Yeah.
Alright.

I just don't understand.

You act like it's prison.

For me it might as well be.

Well, what do you wanna do?

I don't know,

But I wanna take
some time to figure it out.

Well, while you're
figuring it out,

The other guys are
leaving you behind!

Don't you want me to do
something I enjoy?

Enjoy?
Yeah, sure.

We all should find something
we enjoy.

To hell with the
responsibility and hard work!

You wanna talk
to me about responsibility?

Sa-what did you say?
What did you just say to me?

- Nothing.
- Say it again!

- Nothing.
- Say it again!

Who the fuck do you
think you are?!

Meanwhile, I'm going
through a string of losers.

It's funny how things
turn out.

Well, she seems happy.

Yeah, she does, doesn't she?

God, what is that smell?

What?

You don't smell that?
It's terrible!

You mean the coffee?

Is that coffee?

Yeah, I was just making
us a cup.

Oh, none for me.

Wait a second.

Heighten sense of smell,

No wine for you...

Oh, my God!

You're pregnant!

Does Nathan know?

No!

He does not know, and I,

I'm actually not ready
to tell him yet.

I wanna ask Cecilia
to marry me.

What?

Come on, you heard me.

Nathan, listen to me...

No, don't you,
don't call me Nathan!

Every time you call me Nathan
you're just trying to con me

Into doing something.

I have never conned you.

Every time you call me Nathan

I just wait
for the axe to drop.

This is fucking stupid, man.

This is like really fucking
stupid, you're 20 years old.

I'm 22!

Okay, you're 22 years old,

But, how long
have you known her?

Year and a half?

I knew you'd react like this.

I see the way
you look at Cecilia.

What?

You're always judging her.

- I am not!
- Why?

You don't think she's good
enough for me?

I don't know what the fuck
you're talking about!

I just know that you
shouldn't fucking marry her...

Now.

It's stupid, it's a stupid
fucking idea!

It's really not a big deal.

So he doesn't go straight
into grad school.

You can always go later.

Meanwhile everyone else'll
have a year of law school

Under their belt.

I'm just not interested
in the law.

What?
Now you're talking about

Not being a lawyer
at all, period?

Henry, he can always go back
if he changes his mind.

You know what?
I gotta get out of here.

[Thunder and rain]

- Hey, you must be Nathan.
- Yeah.

You weren't leaving,
were you?

I was.

Oh, nobody's going anywhere.
The road's washed out.

Perfect.

Not to worry, I got a 15 year
old bottle of scotch.

- Hi, Evan.
- Vanessa, hi!

- You look amazing!
- Oh, stop.

Better than the last time
I saw ya.

- You must be Henry.
- Hey, Evan, how you doing?

- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you, too.

Eh, congratulations on
the Sandquist-Wells merger.

Thank you.

- I'm Cecilia.
- Evan.

You are a lucky man, Nathan.

So, uh, glasses, rocks?

Anybody?
Who's up?

- Not now.
- Maybe later.

- I'll have a...
- Neat, right?

Yeah.

Hey, Nathan, I heard you're
in law school,

How's that going?

[Thunder and raindrops]

You know, sometimes,
Vanessa, I wish...

What?
He's your son, stay out of it?

Just say it, because if

That's what you want to say,
say it!

I just...

I just want him
to have options.

He has a degree.

Yeah, a bachelor's...

You know

He needs an advanced degree.

Kids these days
with bachelors,

They're having a hard time
finding work.

But he wants to start
his life with Cecilia.

Don't you want to give
him a chance to do that?

Yeah, but what's wrong with
waiting a couple of years?

Don't you remember
what it was like

When you were his age?

Yeah...

Yeah, I do.

When I was
in graduate school.

[Thunder]

Cecilia's pregnant.

She told you that?

Look, I'm not supposed
to say anything.

I promised her I wouldn't.

But, I think considering
the circumstances...

You should know.

She told you
she was pregnant?

Yeah.

What's she gonna do?
Do you know?

What do you mean?

I mean, is she gonna keep it,
have an abortion, what?

Henry, I don't, I don't know.
She didn't say.

Fuck, man!

That's all we need right now.

[Sighs]

Look, it's not the end
of the world.

Look, I'm excited,
I think this is a good thing.

Why?

I think it'll be good
for Nathan

Because if you introduce
a baby into the mix,

He's not gonna have a choice,
he's gonna have to step up.

You know some
of the greatest fortunes

In the history
of the United States

Were created
in the Great Depression

Or in a panic.

But, wait, if you invested
the money

That your parents
gave you for school,

How did you pay for school?

Oh, I dropped out.

Oh, my gosh!
Were your parents mad?

Well, they didn't know.

I just walked around
in the sweatshirt

And then I talked about
the football team.

My old man never suspected
a thing.

So you lied to them.

Well, that depends
on how you look at it.

I like to think that
I was living my life

The way that I wanted to, so,
in that sense,

I was actually
being more truthful.

Okay.
[Chuckles]

I'm telling you
all my secrets.

Now it's your turn.
You tell me one.

I don't have any secrets.

Oh, come on,
everyone has secrets.

I don't.

Umm...

Let me guess...

Another guy?

What?
No!

- Yeah.
- Why would you say that?

I'm, I'm sorry,
I don't want to offend you,

But, it's just something
that, I got the sense that,

You know.

Clearly you think
that you love Nathan,

And I understand that,

But you guys aren't exactly,
you know.

No, I don't know.

You guys aren't exactly
on the same page.

What would make you say that?

- Your body language.
- My body language?

Well, our thoughts, they,

Manifest into the way
that we move, you know,

90 percent of communication
is nonverbal.

I could tell a lot about
people here

Just from what
I saw earlier.

Like what?

Well, like Nathan.

He tries really hard
to be perfect.

And he's an idealist,
but he's conflicted.

Because his heart is telling
him that good guys win,

But his mind has begun
to tell him that guys

Like his father actually win.

Guys like his father.

What do you mean by that?

Guys that take what they want
without apologizing for it.

The things that people tell
you about themselves,

That's really what they want
you to believe, right?

The key is to watch the body,

Because the body doesn't lie.

What does my body say?

Well, you're confident,

But I think on the inside
you really feel

Like you don't fit in.

The way that you move.

You probably studied dance
as a child.

Which means that your parents
probably had money.

Either that or they
sacrificed a lot

To give you the things
that you needed.

They were uh, hard workers.

Good ethics,
emphasis on discipline.

They didn't approve
of the way that you dressed

Or the little tattoo
that you have on the inside

Of your forearm, but you
didn't care because

You were rebellious.

You know, if Henry
met your parents,

He would really like them.

He would admire
their work ethic,

But that's very unlikely
to happen any time soon.

Henry barely
acknowledges you.

Which means
one of two things.

One, he's self-absorbed,

Or two, he doesn't approve
of you, or both.

But either way it makes you
really crave his approval.

How am I doing?

Pretty good,

There's just one thing,
the dancing thing.

It's bullshit because
I never danced.

That tells me that you looked
at my profile online.

It's fake,

So, I know that you googled
me before you came here.

Which means either you're
a creepy stalker guy,

Or you have
some other agenda.

You're handsome and you're
definitely confident,

So, you don't need
to stalk anyone.

So, I'm guessing that you
have something to sell Henry

And you did your research
before you came here.

[Laughs]

Don't worry,
I'm not judging you.

It's the smart thing to do.

That's what I would
have done.

How am I doing so far?

You think I'm making
a mistake?

What?

Vanessa said you think
I'm making a mistake

By not going to grad school.

I didn't say that!

I just wanna make sure that
you're not gonna regret this.

Hey, look, it, it's okay.

School, school's not
for everyone, alright?

He's, I'm sure he has some
kind of business ideas

Some other way that he'd like
to spend the money, right?

No, actually I have no idea
what I wanna do.

Well, I'm sure
you'll figure it out.

Vanessa, I didn't tell you

That I thought that Nathan
was making a mistake.

Right, well, what I meant
to say was... that was a sense

That I got from you.

Okay.

Look.
This weekend is about

Becki and Robert.

Let's talk about all this
stuff later, okay?

Yeah, okay.

- Henry?
- Yeah, sure.

Good, onto other things.

Happy things.

Uh, Henry, I was meaning
to ask you earlier.

What, what are your thoughts
about renewable energy?

Are you guys doing any work
with that?

I'm gonna go take a nap.

So far it's a lot of talk
with very little results.

Well, that may change soon.

They've developed
and kind of enhanced

The photovoltaic cell,
which is the panel

That converts sunlight
into electricity.

They have come up with this,
uh, kind of accelerator

That is going to multiply
the output by 10, maybe 12,

Using half the surface area.

Now, if this company
takes off,

Like I know that it's going to,
I mean, imagine the,

Imagine the size of that
market place.

If this company takes off,
like you know it's going to?

You know it's going to?

I know it's going
to and there's more.

How?

I happen to know
about a certain bill.

This bill is on its way
to passing in the Senate,

It's being fast tracked.

And it's going to be
extending large subsidies

And huge tax credits to...

How do you know
about that bill?

[Nathan narrating]
I knew something was going on
with Cecilia.

I, I just didn't know what.

Jesus!

How did you know?

I overhead my dad
and Vanessa talking.

I noticed some things, uh,
you're not drinking,

You've been getting sick
in the mornings.

Yeah, I'm pregnant.

Are you sure?

I'm sure.

Henry and Vanessa know.

Why didn't you tell me?

I wasn't sure what
I was gonna do.

Like you didn't know if you
were gonna keep it or not?

Yeah.

But, are you going
to keep it?

I'm not getting an abortion!

Good.

That's good.

I'm gonna be a dad.

[Nathan narrating]
I told everyone
the good news.

Well, Henry, you strike me
as a guy who likes

A good scotch.
What do you think?

It's good scotch.

Real good scotch.

What's the difference between
good scotch and bad scotch?

Well, the main difference
is that some are blended

And some are single malts.

This is a blended malt.

Which means that
it's blended from whiskeys

From a couple
different distilleries.

I think the character comes
from the blended malt.

You know what goes good
with a blended malt?

Good cigar?

Yeah, I got a couple
of Cubans out in the car.

You wanna grab the bottle
and uh, go have a talk?

Absolutely.

Lead the way.

[Nathan narrating]
He knew how to connect with Dad
better than I ever did.

How far along are you?
You never said.

Oh, um, the doctor actually
couldn't really tell.

Why?

I guess the picture
on the ultrasound

Wasn't real clear.

I think it was just
his machine.

At least next time you'll
have Nathan to go with you.

Yeah, that'll be great.

You sure it's mine?

Yeah. I'm sure.

Ah, fuck!

Um... okay, well,

How do you wanna deal
with it?

I did a pretty thorough
phone search

And I found
nothing incriminating.

What's the deal
with that anyway?

Are you kidding?

The phone is the best way
to find out

If a man is cheating.

There was something there.

You know?

- What, between us?
- Yeah.

Yeah, I know,
I know there was.

- Yeah.
- That was good.

I know,

So, do you think we could...

You know, try?

Yeah, I know we talked
about that before.

That's fine, but we gotta,

Like, we gotta get the deal
handled with the baby,

I mean we just like keep,
you know, really,
like an abortion

Or something, you know.

An abortion?

Yeah, you can do that, right?

No.

- No?
- No.

Why not?

I'm not getting
a fucking abortion!

Wait, whoa, whoa, wait, wait.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
Why not?

I've never cheated,
but I feel like, I don't know,

A guy would at least delete
the evidence or something.

You can't, it's impossible.

You can't!

You can't have this baby!

You can't, you can't do it.

Do you understand what that
would do to me?

Do you understand...

[Overlapping]
- No.
- What that would do

To my relationship
with my son

And my girlfriend?

Why do you even give a fuck
about them anyway?

I...
uh...

Maybe it's because
you never cheated before,

But, there's
evidence everywhere.

Phone numbers called,
numbers received,

Pictures, text messages,

Plus, once you have
his phone,

You can call whoever you
suspect he's cheating with

And as soon as she answers
the phone

You know for sure if they're
screwing or not.

Why can't you have
an abortion?

Why can't you have
an abortion?

Because I wanna have this
baby, and you know why?

- What?
- I wanna have it with you!

Why?

I don't want it.

I don't fucking
want it, okay?

- You still want it?
- Yeah.

You know what?
I don't fucking need this.

Don't you fucking walk
out of here!

- You know what?
- What?

What? What?
What? What? What?

You wanna know when I can
drop that bomb?

I can drop that bomb
whenever I want.

So my suggestion is that
you pay me

A little fucking respect!

Just by the way she answers
the phone?

Just by the way
she answers the phone

When she sees his number.

There's something that
happened between us.

- You just acknowledged that.
- Yeah.

Why are you fighting
this so much?

We can be good,

We can be good.

This is crazy.

This is fucking crazy.

Are you out
of your fucking mind?

No, I'm finally thinking
clearly is what's happening.

I all along have been dating
Nathan when I'm realizing

That all I wanted
all along was you.

You're what I want.

[Laughs]

Hey, just uh,
don't say anything.

Why?
What's going on?

Six weeks ago I was home
at my mom's for Christmas.

Well, she said
almost six weeks, so...

Yeah, I'm sure it's alright.

You didn't seem to think

That it was such
a bad idea that night.

No... no, I didn't.

It's the best thing that's
happened to me in two years.

Me, too.

I really didn't
see it coming.

Becki went through men
like water.

Oh, come on,
you shouldn't be surprised.

It's in a woman's DNA.

What?
What's that suppose to mean?

[Chuckles]
Well, you've done it now.

Well, come on,
we all know Becki

And even she's falling victim
to the urge to nest.

What's wrong with nesting?

That's nice,
listen to me, Nathan,

Women fake orgasms
to have relationships,

Men fake relationships
to have orgasms.

Please do not tell me that
you believe the bullshit

You're saying right now?

Yeah, dude,
don't talk for me.

[Laughs]

What, are you telling me that
you don't think

That sex is different
for a man

Than it is for a woman?
Come on.

Okay, I'll admit,

Biologically, men are driven
more by sex than women are.

Well, exactly,
that's my point.

That's what
I'm trying to say.
Let me finish.

What I'm saying is,
after all is said and done,

We still have
a consciousness.

I mean and, and that allows
us to rise above those banal

Needs and wants and,
I mean, plus, hello,

Your sister
is getting married.

Alright, Vanessa,
you're right.

- Thank you.
- Nathan, don't listen to me.

I just went through a bad
breakup this year

And it's just a...

A broken heart talking.

What happened?

You know, I met this girl,
I thought she was the one,

She was amazing.

And it was hard for me
to open up

And then when I finally
committed, then uh...

Let's just say
that I regret it.

But you can't
give up on love,

Just because one girl
was awful.

Nathan, you're about
to be a parent.

How's that feel?

Scary.
[Chuckling]

Why?

It's crazy, I mean...

What if I screw up?

Nathan, you are going
to be an amazing dad.

Everybody probably felt
that way, right?

*

Hey, everything okay?

Yeah, I'm just tired.

**

[Nathan narrating]
Vanessa was right.

You can learn a lot looking
through someone's phone.

- That's weird.
- What?

What's weird?

Why do you have
Cecilia's phone?

Why was Cecilia calling you?

Dad!

Why was Cecilia calling you?

Uh, she said uh,
she needed to talk to me.

About what?

Uh...

You knew?

Knew what?

I'm gonna talk to Cecilia.

Whoa, what am I,
what am I missing?

You and I
should probably talk.

[Thunder]

I don't understand.
She went to see you?

She was worried about Nathan.

Why?

- Because of school?
- Yeah.

That's strange.

Why is that strange?

Because it's not her concern.

She was... worried about him
dropping out of school.

What's wrong with that?

No, but worrying
wasn't wrong.

Going to see you,
behind Nathan's back, is.

She said she needed
to talk to me.

What was I supposed to do?

Okay, whatever,
so what's the big deal?

We talked about eh, about
Nathan and school, and um...

- And what?
- Look, um...

Henry?

Apparently there's a...

There's another guy.

There's another guy.

She's cheated?

On Nathan?
She told you that?

Kind, in a way, yeah, yeah,
yeah, I mean, yes, yes.

Oh, my God,
he's gonna be devastated.

I don't... really...

Know what
the circumstances were.

Should we tell him?

No, no, no.

No, I don't think
that's a good idea.

It's uh, it's not our place.

There's something about that
girl I have never trusted.

He loves her so much.

How could she do that to him?

I don't know, Vanessa.

I can't do this anymore.

There's someone else.

Someone else, what do you
mean someone else?

There was a guy.

Guy?
What guy?

Just a guy.

What happened?

We had both been drinking,
we were very drunk,

Especially him.

And?

And he got aggressive.

And he forced himself on you?

- What happened?
- What do you think?

Did you have sex?
[Thunder]

Oh, my God!

Whoa!

An abortion?

No, no, no, no, I didn't mean
like suggest it.

I'm just telling you like
whatever that she wants,

Just, you know, whatever
she decides, you know,

I'm just saying if she,
you know, like,

If you just get the idea that

Maybe she's going
one way or the other,

Just go with it, alright?

No, no, no.

I'm not gonna
suggest it, Henry.

I'm not saying, don't,
I'm not saying suggest it,

I'm just like, whatever,
let's just find out

Where she's at, alright?

Alright?
Maybe she's like,

If she wants to go there,
you know, then we,

Like I'll pay, we'll take
care of everything.

Alright?

Okay?

Nathan?

I'm not mad.

[Nathan narrating]
I was hurt.

You're not?

But everyone makes mistakes.

So you forgave her.

Yeah, we worked it out.

[Panting, heavy breathing]

[Moaning, laughing]

*

[Thunder]

There's a big opportunity
right here to get

Into the ground floor
before this takes off.

Company like yours, we,
we're gonna just raise

One more round
of seed capital.

You can take a position now.

- You know what I think?
- What?

I think I need another drink.

He's not having the,
the best day, I'm sorry.

He's not really been
himself today.

Yeah, I know he's got
a lot of exposure

In Europe right now,

The fucking EU
is upside-down.

The guy probably
needs a hit, right?

- Just like all of us.
- Yeah.

I was serious about what
I said to you earlier.

- What?
- You look really good.

Oh, that.

You look better than
the last time I saw you.

It's like you just...

I don't know,
I guess you must be

In a really good place.
Yeah, we're good.

I can't believe
I'm gonna be a dad.

What if I'm not good at it?

What would make
you think that?

Have you met my dad?
[Chuckles]

You know it's funny,

I was down at
the boat house earlier.

Do you remember
the boat house?

Oh, God!
Making out in the boat house.

- How high school was?
- That was not high school.

You know what I mean.

[Laughs]

I never told Becki
about that.

- Did you tell Becki?
- No, are you kidding?

I'm the only
one of her friends

She thinks never hooked
up with you.

She always says that.

I did not hook up with
all of her friends.

Uh-huh.

Look, and with you
it was different.

- Really?
- Yeah.

I had the biggest crush
on you for the longest time.

Are you serious?

You don't believe me.

No, I don't believe you.

Why do you think
I went to UCLA?

Because their MBA program
is one of the top 20

Universities of the world.

No, I went to UCLA because
you were Pre-Med there.

You never said anything.

Because I was intimidated.

You were always going out
with these older guys, right?

What, what was his name,
that uh...

- Sam?
- Yeah.

The marathon runner?

I don't know, I was shy.

Okay, now I know you're lying
because you, my friend,

Were never shy with girls.

No, no, I was never
shy with girls

That I didn't care about.

I mean, look, there's nothing
at stake, right?

There's nothing to lose,
so it's easy to be bold,

But when you care about
a girl, right?

If you're in love with her.

No, I'm, I'm putting myself
out there, that's something

That I'm, I'm risking, right?

I mean... broken heart.

I guess I just figured that
if, if you never show

Your hand, then, you know,

At least you have
hope, right?

You have the, the fantasy
that maybe some day things

Might work out right,
if the timing were right.

Come on!

Look, you, you wonder why
I never said anything.

Clearly, this is why
I never said anything.

I'm trying to open up
to you here,

I'm just trying to be honest,
you know?

That's cool, cheers.

Henry and I want you to know
that uh, we're here for you.

Both of you.

Thanks.

And I realize that I'm not
that much older than you,

And, Nathan, I'm in no way
trying to be your mom,

Or even your step mom, but,
I do like the idea of family,

Of us being a family.

Thanks.

And I realize that
we are also not very...

- Conventional?
- Conventional, right.

Traditional, functional,
whatever.

Look, I'm not one of those

"Always look on the bright
side" kind of women.

In fact, people like that
bug the shit out of me,

[Nathan narrating]
When you live with someone
who constantly lies to you,

You start lying to yourself.

And we have to make
the best of what we've got,

And, you do the best
you can in life.

I guess that's what I'm
trying to say.

[Thunder]

Uh... get me another scotch.

- I think we're out.
- Mmmm.

Want me to make
something else?

Uh, no...
That's alright.

Hey.

I'm gonna go,
I'm gonna go make a call.

- How you doing?
- Fine.

You're drunk.

Yeah, a little.

Did uh...

Did you guys talk?

- We did.
- And?

She told me everything.

She told you everything?

I mean, about the baby?

Yes, about the baby.

I know what happened.

Really?

What'd she say?

You and I both know,
you already know.

She told, she, she told...

She told me about
the other guy.

[Thunder]

Oh, good.

I'm not mad at her.
I forgive her, I love her.

It's my baby, even if we
don't have the same DNA.

Oh, that's...

That's good, man,
I'm really proud of you,

That's really good.

Yeah, I, I know you
already know.

I know, you know,
she showed up upset and I...

She showed up?

What are you talking about?

[Gunshot]

That weekend,
when she came by.

She was upset.

She called you.

I saw it on her phone.
She called you.

Two weeks ago,
she called you.

Right.

When did she go to see you?

Uh... she came by and,
and we talked.

She was, she was upset,
so we talked.

Oh, my God!

She came over when I
was away for Christmas.

Wait a minute now.
Wait a minute, Nathan.

Don't call me Nathan!

Were you drunk?

Did she tell you who
the other guy was?!

- Hold on, man, slow down.
- No!

I don't think I will!
Were you drinking?

Yeah, I might have,
I-I-I-I might have had

Something to drink,
but I, I, I, I,

What, what's wrong with that?

Did you fuck my girlfriend?
[Gunshot]

No, Nathan, I didn't fuck
your girlfriend!

- Did you fuck my girlfriend?
- No!

- Aaaah!
- God damnit!

What the fuck, Dad?

What the fuck?

How could you do that?
[Choking]

What?

[Distorted voice]
You, motherfucker!

[Crying]
No!

- Oh, my God!
- No!

Why?
Why, motherfucker?

Why did you do that?

Nathan! Nathan!
Nathan! Stop!

Stop!
Stop!

What the fuck
is wrong with you?!

- Calm down.
- Fucking disgusting, man!

Oh, oh!

Oh, my God!

What the hell happened?

- You stay out of this.
- What did I do?

You didn't do anything.
Just stay out of it!

I just can't be around
this anymore,

So I have to um,
you know.

Would someone please
goddamn explain

What is going
on here?

I told you to stay out of it!

I have to leave, okay?

- How?
- I'll walk.

No.
You aren't going anywhere.

It's 12 miles in the fucking
rain, you aren't walking!

Fuck!
[Crying]

Yeah.

Explain please!

What did you do, Henry?

Cecilia slept with my dad.

Henry?
You fucked her?!

- Listen, honey, I...
- Don't fucking touch me!

Everybody just
calm down, alright?

Now we're all stuck here
for the time being,

So everybody just take
a breath.

[Rain falling]

I was drunk.

It never would have happened
if I hadn't been so drunk.

Hm, so you do remember.

Did you know that
I called that night

Because I couldn't get
you on the phone?

He was trying to reassure me
that everything was okay.

Meanwhile you were
fucking Cecilia.

And what about you?

You let me go on and on about
how great it was

That you were having a baby.

Were you ever gonna tell me?

Were you ever gonna bring
little Henry Jr.

Into the world and let
everyone think

It was Nathan's kid?

Why the hell would you even
have the baby?

You know what?
Fuck you!

Don't you dare judge me.
You don't know me.

You don't know anything
about this situation.

All you do is just live
in your happy, happy land

Where everything is okay
all the time

And you don't have
to do anything.

You have never had to work
for a single thing

In your life!

Fuck you!

Okay.
You fucking,

No fuck you, asshole.
Don't touch me.

Nice try, Dad.

You know what?
You shut up, too.

You're just always talking

With this clever
fucking sarcasm.

Do you really think that
you're that much smarter

Than everyone else?
Huh?

Mister "I'm not gonna
go to grad school"

Just because my dad's
paying for it

And I wanna spite him."

You take his money,
you buy nice things

And then you put him down.

Well, at least he's done
something with his life!

Fuck you all!

You know what?
You weren't there,

You don't understand.

I'm trying to understand!

He started kissing me!

I was stunned,

I couldn't believe he would
do something like that!

Why didn't you stop him?

[Nathan narrating]
The fact that I tried to reason
with her was insane.

I don't know.
Maybe I felt safe.

Maybe I felt wanted.

Maybe I felt like
he was someone

Who would take care of me.

You could have said "no."

Fuck you.

Pour you a drink?

Okay, listen, I...

I don't expect you
to forgive me.

So, I just wanted you to know
that I am sorry.

I'm sorry too.

Forgive me for what I said
about the baby.

That was cruel.

Please.

I shouldn't be surprised.

Henry's very charming.

Especially to a girl
who has daddy issues.

You're talking
about me or you?

Hm.

Henry and I uh... we're
trying to get pregnant.

I made it six weeks.

You lost it?

I thought it was because
Henry was old,

But, apparently that's not
the problem.

Well, the rain's
let up a bit.

They should open
the road soon.

I'm going to take my chances.

[Nathan narrating]
That was it.
I never saw her again.

How you doing?

God!

It hurts, you know?

I just keep wanting
to go back a few hours.

Just not ask Cecilia about
the pregnancy.

Why?

Hm?

You wanna live a lie?

I don't know
if that's so bad.

I mean you said it yourself,
living with a fantasy.

Fantasies leave you cold
at night, Vanessa.

Take it from me.

God, Nathan, I'm so sorry.

Thanks.

I feel like somehow I should
have seen this coming.

Normal people don't expect
things like this, Nathan,

Because normal people don't
behave this way.

Yeah, you're right.

I think I'm gonna
go for a walk.

[Flashback]
Do you want me
to go with you?

I think I need to do
this on my own.

[Nathan narrating]
I was hurt, so angry.

Um... I wanted to talk to you.

Uh, I'd uh, I'm still uh,
drunk, and um,

I wanted to make sure...

I said some things to you,
so I wrote 'em down here.

And I'm, um, uh...

I just wanted to say, how
sorry I am, for my behavior.

And, uh, I'm not gonna stay
for the wedding.

Instead I'm, I'm gonna
check myself into a drug

And alcohol
rehabilitation center.

And uh, with hard work
and determination,

I, I hope to earn the trust
of the people who mean

The, the most to me.

That's it.

[Nathan narrating]
I'll never forget the last
thing I said to him.

Have a nice fucking life.

[Nathan narrating]
He never made it to rehab.

Twenty years later, he put
the barrel of a .45

To his head.
Took his own life.

[Gunshot]

- Hi, you must be Nathan.
- Yeah.

[Nathan narrating]
In the back of my mind I always
though I'd see him again.

Hi. Carla.

[Nathan narrating]
Instead, I'm sitting
in the lawyers' office

Waiting for them
to read his will.

Okay.

- Hm.
- Hi, I got Nathan here.

Great.

*

[Birds chirping]

[Nathan narrating]
Today I'm meeting my brother
for the first time.

I'm Nathan.

Dillon.

It's nice to finally
meet you.

You, too.

[Nathan narrating]
I guess life doesn't care
about the stories

We tell ourselves.
